It also has some similarities to max Payne, which took heavily from twin peaks for certain things. Like the duck especially makes me think of the "pink flamingo" in the in-game TV series address unknown.

gzac95 My point is that it DOES sell consoles. There's quite a few reasons the PS4 has more than double the sales of the One. One of those being that it has stronger hardware than it. Back then it didn't matter. No one went "oh I'm gonna get X console because it's stronger than Y console" Now it *is* a leading factor in sales.

I think I deciphered it our main character wanders through his imagination of what the PS2's games and scenarios look like. Seeing his own reflection go through his mind, the protagonist of another story controlled by the same player. He looks around him, his head then floats. Possibly referencing games with a third person perspective, your eyes and by extension your head are the camera, and your body being your character. For the arm being vomited, I've got no clue though. Probably the arm leaving the PS2's world (Reminder, you use a controller, to hold it you need your arms to hold it.) Then he sees "4" characters, his arm, a Mummy, a humanoid duck and himself. The ps2 can play with 4 players. These character are probably him and his friends. "Welcome to the third place", monitors are only 2 dimensional the "3d" is merely the game emulating depth and thus not "real" 3D. The real world however IS 3d. What's a possible synonym of place? Dimension. "Welcome to the third dimension"

@moeloehoe 2 жыл бұрын

Taken from KZfaq User: PeyserConley X "The third place" is a reference to Ray Oldenburg's concepts of first, second and third place. The first place is home (0:10), the second place is workplace (0:15). According to Oldenburg, third places are social surroundings separate from home and work. A successful third place is on neutral ground where everyone can feel comfortable regardless of rank and status.
