Random Days Gone's Trophies Are Scripted to Capture Important Story Moments
Morior Invictus
The PlayStation 4 captures a screenshot that corresponds with every single Trophy you earn, and the vast majority of the time, those images are completely throwaway.

Random Check Out These Excellent Fanmade Death Stranding Box Arts
Dead good
Death Stranding's official box art was revealed just over a week ago, but it wasn't to everyone's taste. The cover, which features main character Sam off to the side, looking back across the box, divides opinion, with many saying it's just a bit boring, especially for a inevitably mental game like Death Stranding.
