OLYMPIC VILLAGE CREEPIN’: In this stealth action segment, you flashback to Michael Phelps’ nights in the Olympic Village. While draconian Olympic rules keep outsiders from visiting the Village, Michael Phelps has never met a rule he couldn’t break – especially not for a gaggle of barely-legal Chinese fangirls.
It’s Street Fighter II Turbo, with a new, beautiful coat of paint, and what’s not to like about that? Well, there are a few things. Just like you now have to see Al Roker’s pores (yechhh), there are some details that you may not have noticed before about the Street Fighter II characters that are more than a little… disturbing.
But we’ve been doing our detective work here at Hardcasual, and for us, that means sitting back and thinking “What would Ghostwriter do?” And we think we’ve figured it out – “A Next Metal Gear” isn’t just broken English. It’s not another sign that perhaps Hideo Kojima may not have the best grasp on how to put a sentence together, let alone an epic narrative. No, in all the genius that is Kojima, he’s constructed… an anagram.
Hardcasual can reveal exclusively today that the Jewel Encrusted Skull you seek was not, in fact, the development team’s first choice. A leaked internal memo has revealed the iterations that the game went through, and in the interest of spreading some knowledge about the genius that went into this game, we’re publishing it in full.
