The ultimate con-man. Throughout the first Bioshock game, the player’s only friend in the downtrodden utopia is a stranger named Atlas. Claiming to be the only one in the underwater city that can help the player, Atlas repeatedly gives what seems like advice on how to escape Rapture, but in reality, are just mind control commands. It turns out Atlas is none other than Frank Fontaine, a power-hungry smuggler reportedly shot and killed in a shootout years prior. As it turns out, Frank Fontaine isn’t even his real name, it’s Frank Gorland. He stole the name Frank Fontaine to gain access to Rapture and cons the player into doing his dirty work which then results in the murder of Andrew Ryan, the creator of Rapture. The player, Jack, turns out to be Andrew Ryan’s genetically-altered son who was brainwashed and grown to become Frank’s personal hitman, so long as Fontaine, or Atlas, used the phrase “Would you Kindly”. One of the most breathtaking twists in gaming history results in Andrew Ryan’s own son being used against him by the monstrous, multi-named conman Frank Fonta
Unfortunately, it actually contradicts rather important information from the first game where John claimed he hadn’t seen Dutch since he left the game. Clearly, this mission takes place long after that fact. Either way, it’s an interesting narrative beat even if it doesn’t make sense. Plus, it directly ties itself into the first game once the credits are thro
Whether they’re sequels to beloved franchises, brand new PlayStation owned IP, or 3rd party releases the PlayStation 4 is home to many great games. Here’s a look at the 10 best single-player campaigns on PlayStation 4, ran
We’re not saying that the end of Red Dead Redemption wasn’t great on its own, putting the player in control of the main character’s son as they take revenge for the death of their father. However, we want to know what happens after this, how Jack Marston manages to live in a US that no longer wants the likes of this sort of cowboy in the Open World Games Collectibles. We think it would be interesting to see what would become of this character, how he would change as he became an adult and what being alone in a cruel world does to him. Definitely a sequel worth looking i
That is because Simon Pearson is the chef for the Dutch van der Linde gang, and he became their chef after he was rescued from loan sharks. As someone who you can speak to in-camp, and someone who is part of missions such as the one where the camp ran out of food, Simon Pearson is a good fri
Skull kids are introduced in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time which was made before the year 2000. It wasn’t until Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask that the player encounters the most unique skull kid of them all. Once banished by the four giants, this skull kid returns to Termina only to become a prisoner in his own skin. Under the influence of the dreaded Majora’s Mask, skull kid starts wreaking havoc, including sending the moon on a one-way collision course with Termina. What separates Skull Kid though is that he is not inherently evil. A trickster, yes, but not evil, and he is being transformed before our very eyes into one of the most demonic Zelda villains of all t
What’s particularly interesting about _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ is how long it takes to get to the bulk of the story. Unlike the first _ Red Dead Redemption _ where John Marston began the game with a clear goal, Arthur Morgan is just trying to get by and live under Dutch’s rule for the first half or so of _ RDR2 _ ’s narrat
A character such as Dutch van der Linde who dresses in a rugged, gaudy fashion is so corrupt that members of his outlaw gang defy his leadership. A protagonist like Arthur Morgan has the opposite effect, bringing reassurance and tranquility. We like Red Dead Redemption 2 for its immersive gameplay, but love it for its character depth. These are the 10 best Red Dead Redemption 2 characters, ran
In the ten years that takes place between the prequel and the sequel, we want to see what sort of life the charismatic gang leader was living. Giving us a game where we get to finally play as this man would be interesting, perhaps forcing us to try and survive on our own before creating our own gang, working against a country that no longer wants us th
The bank heist is the moment _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ ’s story irreversible changes. In one fell swoop, John Marston is left to die (for the first time) and Hosea dies. Dutch’s clear foil, Hosea, kept the gang more or less grounded in the face of Dutch’s more bombastic personality. More importantly, Hosea kept Dutch in-l
Arthur’s fate is a rather tragic one. Along with contracting an incredibly fatal disease, his relationship with Dutch deteriorates as well over the course of the game. His father figure, Dutch is a man Arthur clearly looks up to. At least initially. The longer _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ goes on, the worse their relationship beco
