Breaking Bad Meets Street Fighter
British reader Junior, along with some friends, figured we'd like to see what would happen when Ryu fought Breaking Bad's Jesse. Um, yes.
Breaking Back: Walter White's First 10 Years on Facebook
This week Facebook got a lot of traction for the treacly "Look Back" montages it cobbled together of your earliest and best moments, as the social network observed its 10th birthday. Here's what Heisenberg's video would have looked like. Fortunately, there are no spoilers within.
If PlayStation All-Stars Had Every Good PlayStation Character...
...It'd probably look like this fan art, drawn by talented Kotaku reader Max and his brother Leonardo. Lots of old PlayStation characters to spot in there.

When I think of Breaking Bad's arid desert milieu, I don't really think of ice skating. And yet Breaking Ice, a more-or-less-official ice-dancing recreation of the show, manages to capture the whole thing awfully well.

When Breaking Bad finished, I rounded up some of dorkier roles lead actor Bryan Cranston had been in over the years, from Power Rangers to anime. One role I completely missed, though, was one of his best.

We've spent plenty of time imagining what a Breaking Bad video game would look like. And heck, if you customize your character right, you can make GTA V into one… kinda. But what if the type of game best suited to Heisenberg's odyssey is the kind with no graphics at all?

OK, so it's not that secret, but in this, a week where Bryan Cranston's final performance as Walter White has been the talk of the internet, it's as good a time as any to look back on a time when he was...doing voice-over work for anime.

Based on popular Breaking Bad memes, you'd think that the entirety of Aaron Paul's performance as Jesse Pinkman revolved around a script with a single word in it: "bitch."

Breaking Bad has an ending—maybe you've watched it? And maybe that ending played out the way you thought it would. Or maybe you had your own ending in mind...perhaps something more like these fan-servicey endings created by CollegeHumor?

It was already difficult to watch the trailer for the upcoming Need for Speed movie without thinking of its star, Aaron Paul, as his Breaking Bad character Jesse Pinkman. And now, thanks to this dramatic (and spoiler-filled) mash-up video from Slacktory, it'll be even more difficult.

In an ideal world, we could jump into this 8-bit Breaking Bad game right after the finale of the series. Sadly it's just an imaginary start screen—a pretty neat one, nevertheless—of an imaginary game, The Legend of Heisenberg, made by Filippo Morini.
