Watch out captain! Cliff ahead! TheBrownCanadian was able to glitch out Assassin’s Creed IV and make it look like a Spelljammer-style space pirate game. Anti-gravity engines were not that advanced in the 1700s after all. Dayshot is an image-based feature that runs every morning, showcasing some of the prettiest, funniest game-related screenshots and art that…

Lara Croft’s Manor, Remade As A Counter-Strike Map
It’s a pretty big map to play CS:GO on, but definitely a fun one. The level takes the maze, the pool, the training area, and all the colorful locations from Lara Croft’s various manors from the Tomb Raider games, and mixes together in the form of a Counter-Strike map. There’s no butler though, so we…

LEGO Steampunk Diorama Is All About The Rusty Vehicles
Logan‘s Steampunk-themed “SWAT team bust” diorama is not a typical LEGO build. He named it “The grand arrest of Professor Filius Bertram” and that arrest includes coal-powered airships, a tank and something that looks like a tripod. Very cartoony. The Ghibli-style house is cool, but the best part of the whole build are definitely the…

Modder Turns StarCraft II Into Warcraft, Sort of
Modder Steven Luo is working hard to convert StarCraft II into a new Warcraft game with the help of SCII’s map editor. In the latest version of his “Warcraft: Alliance and Horde” mod—which can be found on StarCraft II‘s arcade page—he added quite a lot of things: the Burning Legion and the Undead Scourge as…

Warlords of Draenor is shaping up to be one giant World of Warcraft nostalgia trip. If the new Upper Blackrock Spire didn’t hit you hard, the revamped Nagrand, one of the fan-favorite zones of the BC era, will. These preview shots look really cool—hopefully the zone will still be exciting without the floating rocks. Warlords…

Dark Souls II‘s Lore Might Be Deeper Than You Think
Sinh, the Slumbering Dragon, the final boss of Dark Souls II‘s Crown of the Sunken King DLC, is one of the series’ most exciting boss battles. It’s a battle that needs something similarly cool as background. Vaati, a Souls veteran, helps us decode the game’s cryptic backstory with a masterfully crafted lore video. Here’s the…

Very cool, tiny custom LEGO mechs from builder Brian Kescenovitz. They might be minifig-scale, but he was still able to put in so much stuff and make them look so detailed. Just look at those legs. Here’s the pilot of the bigger one: Assault War Doll 2 by Brian Kescenovitz [Flickr, via r/mfz] Dayshot is…

Superheroes With A Progressive Redesign
After Marvel revealed that the next Captain America will be The Falcon, an African American, and Thor will be a woman in the future, the folks at Dorkly imagined a couple more heroes trying to change the status quo. Here’s Iron Man, whose suit uses even more clean energy than the original one, vegan Wolverine,…

Spongebob Characters In Human Form
Just in case the recent trailer with CG Spongebob characters wasn’t enough, Chinese artist XiaozuoZ, possibly inspired by the same trailer, decided to redraw the main characters as humans. Humans from an anime parody perhaps where everyone, even Patrick, is buff. Just imagine a classic episode like “Opposite Day” with these makeovers. It’d be the…

Springfield From The Simpsons, Rebuilt As A LEGO Town
The amazing official Simpsons house probably wasn’t enough for veteran builder Matt De Lanoy, so he took the entire town, Springfield, and its key buildings, and put them into LEGO form. Ned Flanders’ house, the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, Kwik-e-Mart, Moe’s Tavern, Krusty Burger, the Town Hall, Springfield Elementary School… It’s all there with the…

Ed, Edd n Eddy, All Grown Up
Even “Plank” grew up in Isaiah Stephens‘ fan-art where all the idiotic characters from the classic show Ed, Edd n Eddy are now adults. They might look totally normal at first, but just look into Ed’s eye in the first pic below and you’ll see madness. Here are some individual comparisons from Isaiah’s Tumblr: The…

LEGO Castle Is Not What It Seems
Mahj‘s castle build might look a bit ordinary at first look. Something’s not right here. That’s because it’s a giant, walking mecha LEGO castle! Here’s video. Too bad we don’t have a chance to see inside, it’s probably filled with a lot of stuff. Or running mice on a treadmill. Gradior [YouTube] To contact the…

Oh Hey, It’s The Power Rangers In Diablo III
Barbarians might not be the most powerful class right now in Diablo III, but with a little creativity they’ll look like the most powerful ones. You just need to dress them up as the Power Rangers Jaetch and his friends used the Jade armor set, some familiar moves and the show’s classic soundtrack to make…

Imagining Mortal Kombat With Post-Apocalyptic Characters
On artist Sergey Svistunov‘s Mortal Kombat art, Kabal and Shao Kahn (with Sub Zero hands) look like members of a vicious, post-apocalyptic gang from Mad Max, and not characters of a game with mystic realms and gods. Their masks are so badass. There’s a bunch of characters from the artist below, check out the rest…

One Of World of Warcraft‘s Newest Dungeons Is A Moving Train
I’m pretty sure the developers at Blizzard liked Snowpiercer a lot, because one of the new dungeons in the upcoming expansion will be something similar. Most of the time we’ll be fighting on a huge, moving train of the Iron Horde. Gnomes had submarines in Warcraft II, there’s the Gunship Battle in the Icecrown Citadel…

It’s Not Easy To Be A Cop In Mortal Kombat
And it’s not because Stryker’s in-game abilities are weak, but, as Dorkly’s recent comic shows, there is only one ninja outfit in the entire Mortal Kombat universe. And they didn’t even catch Ermac. You can read more Dorkly comics here. To contact the author of this post, write to: [email protected]

Video Games Are Better With Dancing Pixel Birds
French artist Kévin creates his animations in a rather unique way: by using Flipnote Studio, a downloadable application for the Nintendo DS. This makes all of his art look like something from a 90s handheld game. In his recent gallery, he takes several games and replaces the characters in them with penguins and other birds.…

Hyrule Warriors Looks Like Zelda On Steroids
We’ve got a new Hyrule Warriors trailer recently, with (mostly) Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess characters looking vicious and pulling off some really crazy, unexpected moves. Even the most innocent ones like Agitha are now doing xtreme multi-kills. But it just looks so awesome. Even in gif form: Here’s Link, pulling out the Master…
