Last year, Death Stranding is the most mentioned name in the gaming industry. Is the son of a talented game maker Hideo Kojimaalthough it is inevitable that there are mixed opinions, most of the reviews of gamers are positive.
In the game, players will control Sam Porter Bridges transporting goods to the remaining communities of America. We all know Sam has to walk a lot, even many people have commented that the game is like a “walking simulator”. And that is the inspiration for Allen Pan, an engineer and YouTuber, to turn a treadmill into a PS4 so that he can play games and exercise at the same time.
As an engineer before turning to Youtube, Allen Pan understands quite well how machines work. He kind of connected the PS4 joysticks to the treadmill so that he could play Death Stranding through physical movements on it. Details, readers can watch at the video below:
Surprisingly, under the creation of Allen Pan, this device works quite well. Sam’s movement speed even changes based on the player’s speed on the treadmill. For a more realistic experience, the YouTuber also wears a giant backpack behind to accurately simulate the “carrier” Sam Bridges in the game. “Yeah! I run and he runs too. We ran together, so funny!”, Allen Pan said happily.
Then, the male YouTuber invited some friends to try Death Stranding with his treadmill, all of which felt quite interesting and even burned a significant amount of calories. Instead of sitting in one place controlling the character running back and forth, Death Stranding has now turned into a real physical training game in this way. This is another example of the boundless creativity of the gaming community. Death Stranding is currently available for PS4, a PC version is in development, slated for release this summer.
