Who Wants to Get Drunk League of Legends Style?
When League of Legends characters aren’t flinging crackling balls of energy at one another on the battlefield you’ll probably find them working on their bartending license. Those energy balls can also be turned into a lovely looking drink, proved by the images up top—taken from Nimhain’s blog AlcoLol As an obvious fan of LoL Nimhain…

Where are the Black League of Legends Characters?
In November 2011 League of Legends boasted more than 11 million active players all over the world. With almost 100 unique characters for players to choose from and bi-monthly additions to the roster, the studio behind LoL, Riot Games, has quite a diverse crew on its hands. The game’s roster isn’t diverse enough according to…

Your First Look at Dishonored in Motion
It’s been quite a while since we’ve heard anything from Arkane Studios’ steampunk/sci-fi/assassin game Dishonored Actual footage in this video is, unfortunately, pretty sparse but at least the scenery’s pretty. Just imagine all the running, super powers, and shooting. There. Now aren’t you excited? If that didn’t work then perhaps the interview with co-creative directors…

Motocross Bikes Soar at Awkward Angles in Trials Evolution‘s Newest Screenshots
You may perhaps remember that racing/platforming/puzzleish XBLA game Trials HD about injuring yourself on a motocross bike. Its sequel, Trials Evolution seems to be even more genre defying. Not satisfied with only meshing three unlikely genres together, RedLynx—the developer behind Trials—has thrown in first person shooting, arcade shooting, and pinball (that’s a genre, right?) as…

Was League of Legends’ Newest Champion Inspired by an Employee?
A few days ago a League of Legends champion, named Fiora, got leaked onto a respected League of Legends‘ fansite. Accompanying the flood of information was a picture of Fiora herself who seemed…oddly familiar. On the left of the photo above we can see Fiora, the Grand Duelist, and on the right we have Nika…

Here’s How Alan Wake’s American Nightmare New Survival Mode Plays
After playing a few hours with it, I can say that Alan Wake’s American Nightmare‘s survival mode, officially dubbed Fight ‘Til Dawn, feels spiritually closer to Resident’s Evil‘s survivor mode than Gears of War‘s Horde mode. The emphasis is on surviving, not on mowing down schloads of enemies with your chainsaw gun (though if you…

Watch the Precious (?) Enhancements of Street Fighter x Tekken‘s Gem System
Street Fighter x Tekken‘s Gem System has been quite a controversy in the fighting game community. There are those who feel it makes the game too easy, that it will, in fact, break the game itself. After playing through SFxT‘s tutorial and pumping in a couple of hours into versus mode, I think that Capcom…

How to Gut People: A Hands-on Preview of Ninja Gaiden 3
I sat down with my katana and PS3 controller recently to play Ninja Gaiden 3. In addition to pausing the game every so often to act out my favorite moves, I put together this video showcasing what Ninja Gaiden 3 has to offer. You’ll see blood being flung off of a sword, an unsettling cutscene,…

In-Game Skyrim Fashion Show Featuring Brynjolf, Farkas, and Vilkas
In Skyrim Brynjolf is one of the most elite members of the Thieves Guild. Farkas and Vilkas are mighty twin brothers belonging to The Companions. Manly, beefy men the lot of them. However, that doesn’t stop them from wanting to show off their fashion sense (or their hips, for that matter). Watch them take a…

The Version of Minecraft You Wish You Had
Minecraft is not usually known for its impressive graphics and vibrant palette of colors. Certainly the constructions I tried my hand at tended to be tall, singular pillars of… brownish greenish. This video shames me by showing off some of the most impressive structures that Minecraft can imitate, all set to a soaring soundtrack. The…
