Also, looking into this email leak scandal, not everything seems as clear as people make it out to be. Emails starting m and i seem to be not affect (as with myself), possible message? (MI? Michigan?) Also, can anyone who did get the list (and I know this is risky) actually test if they are all real people? Do any look fishy? (planted?)

I had noticed images in his forehead as well. Maybe pump up the contrast?

I noticed this as well.. maybe it somehow coincides with an exhibit. I read the two interviews as well. There are a lot of names in there to check out.

Question. Why is his left ear darker?



At first I thought it was shadows, but now I am not so sure.

Also, this:


This is the so called weird formation in his forehead. But after looking closely to it for a few hours I started thinking that this is not the result of some hidden message, but of photo manipulation. Look closely enough and you will start to notice that the texture in the center of that area is kinda bland when compared to the areas around. Like someone used clone stamp in photoshop to hide something.

My theory so far is that Demarco is already dead at the time of this picture. We know that Aiden Pierce killed him with a blow to the head, which would explain the photo manipulation, and the shadow on the left ear might be stain from bleeding in the ears because of the brain damage.

I am not sure why they would do that. And honestly that doesn't seem to be the best explanation to what is going on, but honestly, when I look at that picture, that is all I see.[/spoiler]

BTW, while playing with Levels on photoshop I found that the mark on his forehead is incredibly well defined. Also, it might be nothing, but notice how the skin wrinkles on his forehead seem to stop around that area that I showed earlier, even distort a bit actually.


I also found this while playing with the image:


As you can see, the jacket doesn't really exist. The pattern continues linearly even if it wasn't supposed to. Might be due to the method of production, or not, at this point I don't know, I just thought you would like it.

There is something on his forehead those two lines. Has anyone noticed them before? It doesn't look like a wrinkle maybe a scar or something else?

The pattern on his forehead looks kinda similar to the menu used by Aiden when hacking things, but other than that I'm stumped.

Left ear

Been a long time since I've played an ARG, but this one definitely has my attention, so I'll be keeping an eye on it.
I've scanned through what everyone has done so far, and I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it or not yet - but the question of the glasses going through the left ear - that's actually a piercing. It's a bar - similar to what you'd put through your tongue, except it goes through the ear.
Probably not important or relevant, but thought I'd point it out.

Not to s*** on everyone's most recent efforts but I think we're following a non-existent trail.
The image is hi-res bc this is a next-gen game and they're showing a bit of ego/flair regarding the image quality.
Also, it would be very unusual to post a post-mortem photo of a person in your press release so the mark on his forehead is likely NOT a result of blunt trauma/death and it does indeed look like a bit of photoshop stamping.

The e-mail snafu was exactly that.

So no one has been able to "decode" the .dat file from the e-mail?

It's a standard outlook file describing the contents of the email itself. It doesn't hold anything out of the ordinary that I can see.

Honestly, thats how I feel...I dont think there is truly much in the picture at all...sure the mark is interesting, but what good does it do us?
