StarCraft Units With a Post-Apocalyptic Facelift
Unlike champions in various MOBAs, StarCraft units don’t have any skins or any cosmetic features, so we have to compensate with our imagination. Artist Tamás Gyerman, for example, took a few units from the game and redesigned them to fit a post-apocalyptic world. The latest, at the top, is a giant mecha, or even steampunk…

A Lucky Way To Start Diablo III
This is what a painfully lucky encounter with Diablo III’s random number generator looks like. Player duslol not only got a rare Conduit Pylon with its zapping instant-kill buffs right at the entrance of an end-game dungeon, but an even rarer pack of Treasure Goblins next to it, all standing in a narrow hallway, ending…

Cyberpunk LEGO Is, Sadly, Not Official
Computers and displays hanging on the walls, chaos that is somehow organized, rusty post-indusrial techno-junk lying everywhere. Tim Schwalf‘s massive LEGO cyber slums fan-build has it all, just like a proper dystopian town. It’s easy to imagine this as part of an official cyberpunk set with mechs and hardboiled detectives. Here are some close-up shots—head…

The Ten Coolest Unknown NPCs In World of Warcraft
Azeroth is full of great characters everyone’s familiar with, like Thrall, Jaina, or returning NPCs like Brann Bronzebeard or Nat Pagle. But some of the best storylines are hidden deep in Azeroth, and if you’re not exploring everything with both factions, reading every quest along the way, it’s easy to miss out. Nixxiom collected ten…

Guy Turns His PS1 Into Final Fantasy VII‘s Midgar
Well, that’s one way to play the classic JRPG: With a miniature version of Final Fantasy VII‘s capital city on top of the console. MakoMod‘s creation, which took 10 months to complete, might look rusty and dark, just like Midgar, but the modified PlayStation and reads discs perfectly. The creator shared a gallery on his…

Will Smith And Jimmy Fallon Remake A Hip-Hop Classic Using An Ipad
Jimmy Fallon and Will Smith—who somehow still looks like a 25-year-old— used Loopy, a tiny app for the iPad, to beatbox a few layers and record a complete hip-hop song. A remake of the The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air opening theme (or a RUN-DMC track) would have been cool, but DJ EZ Rock’s “It Takes…

Ten of the Funniest Besiege Builds
Besiege is a game where you construct catapults, trebuchets and other siege engines. But since it’s a physics-based game, the best and funniest creations—weight benches, Metal Gears, doomsday bikes—are far from any medieval construct. As you can see above ManwithNoname not just built a skinny guy lifting weights, but an entire weight bench. Planetaska‘s bikes…

Honest Trailers Nails Everything About Hearthstone And Its Community
They certainly did their research on Hearthstone streamers. Here’s Smosh’s honest trailer, full of truth about deck building, luck and Magic: The Gathering. Deep down we probably all knew these, but they won’t stop us playing the game. Copying powerful decks is mentioned in the clip, but we really shouldn’t feel guilty about that. Just…

Fallout 3‘s Lone Wanderer as a Silly Balloon Sculpture
He even has a proper Pip-Boy 3000. The bakery might ruin the immersion, but this is where the creator, DjDrummer, makes his balloon sculptures, though usually not gaming related ones. Here’s the Lone Wanderer in his full glory. I wonder what perks this version would have. Increased poison resistance? Silent running? Unique dialogue options? To…

Scientifically Accurate Barney Hates Children
No educational messages this time from the purple T-Rex. You can also forget the cute songs and dance moves. ADHD’s scientifically accurate Barney, a new version of the purple T-Rex from the 90s show Barney & Friends, is simply just hungry. And although ADHD’s animation is full of blood and destruction, the original Barney is…

Old School RuneScape Rebuilt In Minecraft
This must be one of the flattest Minecraft worlds out there, but that’s how you remake a classic browser game. As Chajben’s one-man project shows, the 2007 version of RuneScape—the free MMO we probably all encountered before one way or another—and is relatively small, making it possible to rebuild it block by block and make…

Finally, A GTA V Stunt Montage With Birds
All the jets are grounded. GTA V‘s birds are here to show how to pull tricks off properly. Stunt montages with bikes and jets have always been popular, so it was just a matter of time before someone made a parody focusing on a recently added feature: flying as birds. 8-Bit Bastard visits all the…

The Harsh Reality of Questing In RPGs
Accepting and completing a quest doesn’t always go as smoothly as planned. As DarkLegacyComics’ latest points out, it would be different than real life, thanks to quest logs and their limited capabilities. And while everything is accurate here—for example World of Warcraft‘s quest log can only hold up to 25 quests at a time—that reward…
