You know what's weirder then crying over fictional characters in a movie. Crying over a fictional universe in a game. I got to spend most of my holidays playing Life is Strange. A wonderful interactive fiction game (think Telltale games) that lets you control a 18 year old going to High School and the drama that follows...oh and you can travel through time. It is amazing to see a game that can not only be fun; maybe not all the time but tries to tell an amazing story well keeping a person engaged with some interesting gameplay. My plan is not to talk about the story to much in Life is Strange but rather focus on the idea of story. The time spend playing Life is Strange had me kept going back to asking "why isn't this a movie or tv show" or "this would make such a good..etc". The story in the game tell teenage drama in maybe a corny way at times but probably better then I have seen it in a long time. Not only that it is able to wrap in a time travel element...
