Chloe must be a popular name these days (it does sound pretty awesome!), as two somewhat high-profile games that are being released over the span of less than ten days -- Uncharted: The Lost Legacy and episode 1 of Life is Strange: Before the Storm -- both have lead characters who share the name of the coolest PF contributor! Uncharted: The Lost Legacy came out on August 22nd while the first episode of the prequel to 2015's interactive movie Life is Strange is due out in two days.

Our @Chloe (http://thepoliticalforums.com/member.php?u=565) I think may have a bit more in common with the one from Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, whose backstory and character development are the highlight of the game for me. Here's a glimpse:

It's possible that Chloe may also recall the original Life is Strange from my recommendation of the first game to her back when it came out a couple years ago. The upcoming one is going to be a prequel to that, structured in a similar way (episodically). I'm actually more interested in this prequel than I was in the original due to its narrative focus on Chloe's backstory (this franchise's Chloe is perhaps a little more like me at that age than our Chloe though) and the elimination of the time-rewinding mechanic from the first game (which should make for more realistic game play, which is something that video games need more of badly). Here's a trailer:

Both games even focus on the cultivation of a friendship between a pair of non-males, albeit within very different frameworks. Anyway, just thought I'd point that out today. :grin:
