The PT preview game for Silent Hills was so good and the most terrified I’ve ever been playing a game. I broke my controller against the wall after one of those hallway scares.. not joking. One of his projects I was looking forward the most.

^ amazing game. Buddy projected it on the wall, it was a hellish vortex. Crying babies drove mad

*drove me mad

is that the one in the corridor that you keep going back to?

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 27 February 2018 03:12 (six years ago) link

Yeah that's the one. There is an actual order and steps to be done before going through the corridor each time (while avoiding to be killed by your ex-wife's ghost). By the way some steps were ridiculous like whispering names into the controller's mic at certain points. When completed an actual trailer for the game was revealed (when first launched there was no info on who was behind the mini game just the words PT whic stands for Playable Trailer)

The concept trailer made by kojima and del toro also looked amazing. Really sad this is not happening:

Also for extra sadness: Junji Ito was going to be involved twitter.com/RealGDT/status/648117433593655296?s=09

Back to Grimes it would be so awesome to have her collaborating on Death Stranding with Kojima either as a cameo 'actor' or doing some sound loops for the game (or both).

✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 27 February 2018 18:40 (six years ago) link

Btw for you of those who have no idea who Kojima or what a Death Stranding is, it's the game he has been developing since he was fired from Konami and it looks fucking bonkers... here's the three concept trailers released so far:

Starring Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen and Guillermo del Toro as actors for the game so far. The budgets on his projects are crazier than the concepts.

✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 27 February 2018 18:45 (six years ago) link

It'll be released with the Playstation 6, no doubt :)

also all three have said they have no idea what the game is even about!

i love that kojima's out doing his thing in an industry where triple A is increasingly bland but he disappeared up his own but a while back

It's not delivery, it's Adorno! (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 27 February 2018 19:01 (six years ago) link

we should make a speculative thread for it, even if grimes would probably love us talking about video games in a thread about her music :)

mh, Tuesday, 27 February 2018 19:02 (six years ago) link

this is probably the only part of the thread she wouldn't find horrifying tbh

It's not delivery, it's Adorno! (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 27 February 2018 19:04 (six years ago) link

you say it like she hasn't read it already. hi grimes!

Grimes remains our kid's favorite musician. He recently claimed she was more famous than Katy Perry.

when he's right, he's right

(tho i've seen him big up echo & the bunnyman, bauhaus, others --- he's basically an ex goth)

My 5yo daughter is the same, but also loves David Bowie equally.

Give it a year or two and you'll know more Meghan Trainor songs than you even thought existed.

They showed the class a video with music by Taylor Swift the other day, whom has been blessedly absent from my life up until now.

very nice.

went on her subreddit the other day and they have a banner above it that reads #FREEGRIMES

flappy bird, Sunday, 25 March 2018 19:38 (six years ago) link

Yeah, there are some intense people over there for sure.

One thing that I'd never been aware of is that I guess there's a type of fan that pays close attention to who an artist follows on instagram and twitter? Right now there's a thread at the top of the sub about Elon Musk following Grimes, but I've also noticed "Grimes and 4AD stopped following each other!" and "why doesn't grimes follow _______ anymore? aren't they still friends?" type comments. idk.

how's life, Monday, 26 March 2018 09:37 (six years ago) link

the myspace top friends drama lives on in followbacks

mh, Monday, 26 March 2018 12:26 (six years ago) link

a grimes myspace page would be wild

✖✖✖ (Moka), Monday, 26 March 2018 15:51 (six years ago) link

Montreal Grimes >>>>> L.A. Grimes. Not that I'm biased or anything.

This doesn’t excite me to be honest.

✖✖✖ (Moka), Thursday, 3 May 2018 04:24 (six years ago) link

yeah there's nothing exciting about that

whos poppy

flappy bird, Thursday, 3 May 2018 04:29 (six years ago) link

spent my whole teenage years obsessing over 4AD - pretty jarred by grimes calling it shit

wtf

done and dusted (Ross), Thursday, 3 May 2018 04:37 (six years ago) link

I'd be curious to hear Grimes' thoughts on the last two Twin Shadow albums.

MarkoP, Thursday, 3 May 2018 04:44 (six years ago) link

holy crap, what's up with that NME website? i guess they closed the print version so they could focus exclusively on burying 5 sentences of content within an avalanche of garbage ads?
i'm not sure i was able to extract any information from that page, but my brain hurts now.

she has called every label shit so far.

She’s probably right tbh

4AD is not really 4AD anymore, hasn't been the curated sorta label it's remembered as since around 2008.

grimes/poppy seems a v fitting collab to me

this would be way more exciting than a Poppy collab if anything comes of it (that's kpop thread favourites LOONA)
