Vaults in Fallout are no strangers to horrific experiment—according to the lore, that's why vaults exist in the first place. Vaults were constructed for social experiments, the likes of which couldn't be carried out in any other circumstance. » 1/23/15 4:00pm 1/23/15 4:00pm

Zeurel and Octopimp's short animation—which is just as good as the original cutscenes—about the first Katamari game's silly plot is enough proof to be sure: it's impossible not to love Katamari Damacy. » 1/22/15 9:20am 1/22/15 9:20am

Is there anything more confusing than video game lore? Oh, right: Lord of the Rings video game lore. I could've sworn there were other gamers out who've been having a hard time figuring out what the hell is going on in Shadow of Mordor's main story. Finally, I can say for sure that I'm not alone. » 11/11/14 10:40am 11/11/14 10:40am

Confused why Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor left "Lord of the Rings" out of its name? Well, lead designer Bob Roberts just explained to Eurogamer that the omission was a deliberate choice to make sure the game was seen as "clearly its own thing" by keeping it "separate" from established LOTR franchises. Mystery solved! » 10/02/14 6:02pm 10/02/14 6:02pm

You probably know that the Warlords of Draenor expansion for World of Warcraft is launching in November, but do you know who the Warlords of Draenor are? Blizzard's five-part "Lords of War" video series should clear things up. » 9/08/14 10:01am 9/08/14 10:01am

I haven't played The Elder Scrolls Online, but as an avid enjoyer of Elder Scrolls games, I've been curious where in the series' timeline it takes place. Now, thanks to the fast-talking folks at Lore, I know. » 4/29/14 5:30pm 4/29/14 5:30pm

Lex Luthor again, with his arrogance and the moral high ground... Lore and their take on DC Universe Online's backstory, complete with a silly Brainiac, make the game look a bit better than it actually is. » 3/27/14 6:20am 3/27/14 6:20am

Having been in operation for 15 years now, Sony Online Entertainment's MMORPG EverQuest has built a rich and detailed history for players to ignore while they scrabble for loot. » 3/22/14 3:15pm 3/22/14 3:15pm

Why do Mega Man characters pose with four fingers held up? I didn't know either, but now I do, thanks to the latest "Fast Facts" video from Lore. » 2/06/14 6:30pm 2/06/14 6:30pm

I have never played Xenogears (I know!) and so I never actually knew what the games were all about. Now, thanks to Lore, I do. A hamster on a cross, eh? Okay… » 1/22/14 1:00am 1/22/14 1:00am

Story has never really been Pokemon's strong suit, but even so, LORE manages to condense the 30+ hour Pokemon X & Y adventure into one minute. Better yet, they somehow manage to tell the story better than the actual games do. Neat. » 11/26/13 1:30pm 11/26/13 1:30pm

Previously ... on Grand Theft Auto V ...
